How Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging works in SkillScorer
Score
Each team member in a department is scored on the Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank team members, compare two side by side, or compare your departments against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging skills need attention. Reports also follow each senior scientist's department.
Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging scorecard covers 10 skills: Patient Identification, History and Consent, Patient Positioning and Immobilisation, Exposure Selection and Radiation Protection, Image Quality Assessment and Repeat Reduction, CT, MRI and Ultrasound Technique, Contrast Media Administration and Reactions, Trauma and Mobile Imaging, Paediatric and Vulnerable Patient Care, PACS, RIS and Reporting Workflow and Infection Control and Equipment Care. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are team members scored in Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging?
Every team member is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one department and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging?
Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging starts with these levels (called “Career Stage” in the app): Student, Graduate Radiographer, Radiographer, Senior Radiographer and Chief Radiographer. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Diagnostic Radiography & Imaging skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In pathology & diagnostic imaging the app talks about team members, departments and senior scientists, and you can change any of those words too.
